sorry, im def new to the HTC products. to understand, you want to setup a Linux based VM with the EVO system dump and the android SDK on it?
what are the advantages to this?

it will give me/you a fell for what EVO has on it. as well as see if the applications can run on it fine before release

Basically you're wanting an Evo emulator, right?

In a way yes, but i want it for the SDK

could this work?

Deving on a Mac

Hey guys I have been getting into a lot of modding and such I was wondering what programs you guys recommend using to develop apps, roms, mods and stuff like that on a mac. I just have one request; please don't tell me to get a windows computer. I can't afford it or I would.
Thanks for any help
For apps, you can easily install Eclipse and download all of the Android SDK bits.
You can also partition your hard drive and run Linux .
It's actually better to use a Mac than a PC. You don't really need any special apps or tools besides what comes in the SDK. And on a Mac, you can build android from source. You can't on a PC.
I have a Mac and I've used it for developing
Thanks for the quick replies. Can the SDK tools be used to tweak apks?

Dual boot Ubuntu and Android

As Canonical launch Ubuntu for phone today.. I'm pretty excited about this project and according to what he said, we will be able to download the first release within next 1 or 2 weeks.
My question is, since Android and Ubuntu share kernel and driver, is there any possible way to run dual boot on the same phone?
How would we know? You couldn't wait till it was out so we'd even know the install process?

You coundn't answer without being snotty and arrogant?
He was just asking a question, the attitude is unnecessary.

Not arrogant; straight to the point. And Android doesnt share the same kernel as Linux. If they did, then Android would be in 3.8.x or 3.6.x stable.

There's a way to be straight to the point and not imply that the OP's question shouldn't have been asked. It was a good question. It's too bad that the semi-anonymous nature of the internet allows people to be ruder than they'd be in person. Forums are here for people to ask each other questions. That's the point of it all.
So to answer the OP's question, take a look at this. It's not really dual boot but you may find it interesting. I'm personally really excited about this.
http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/android.
Oh and regarding Ubuntu and Android not being able to share the same kernel, here's a quote from the above website:
"It lets Android and Ubuntu share the same Linux kernel, so they can run at the same time – Android for the phone experience and Ubuntu when docked."
I said android and Linux, not android and Ubuntu.

I have dual boot Android and Ubuntu on my Infinity, and they share the same kernel...
I'm not quite sure what you mean by Android and Linux versus Android and Ubuntu?
Because Ubuntu isn't Ubuntu Mobile. And it isn't actually being run on your device it's being emulated.

How so?
Ubuntu (which is what the OP was about) can share a kernel with Android. This is proven by the post I linked to.
As to dual booting Ubuntu mobile and android, we'll have to wait.
Either way the OP was right about one thing: its very exciting.

[Q] Ubuntu in tab s?

It's possible to run linux on android (google app store) app. And install ubuntu on the app and run the same using chroot. Will this be possible in any of the new roms that are posted in the developers area? Thanks for your answer, this will be principal factor in my decision to buy this device.

I don't see why not, you could even port native Ubuntu over with a little effort since the 5420 soc already has Linux ports.

Hmm. very interesting thanks for the info... Any hands on experience with "Complete Linux Installer" , "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zpwebsites.linuxonandroid&hl=en" Running Linux native in the device sounds interesting, but running ubuntu on the same within android is exactly what I need at this moment. In some of the devices that I use to have especially with a original rom this process is not supported. If any body had done this process in the device and could advise will be very helpful. Thanks in advance.
I'll give it a go on my Tab S 8.4 and report back...

I tried it on the SM-T800 (WIFI) and it doesn´t worked at all because it cannot run the loop mode (?)
I´m trying linux on android for the first time so maybe someone can help me with it!
I need to figure out if it would be possible if i had another Kernel or another rom.
At the moment I´m running ThunderRom 800
Thanks in advance!

I get "unable to create loopback device" error. Blows..
Does anybody knows the complete procedure to activate loop device on the smt800
